How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Bath re-enamelling in Lightwood Green, done in place

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Lightwood Green. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you’re in Lightwood Green and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Questions from Lightwood Green

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Cheshire East. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A bath that is rusted through

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repair or replace in Lightwood Green?

Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Lightwood Green?

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
